I realize they will be careful with Alvarez for the meantime, but I don't think any version of Williams could have beaten him either. He doesn't have the power to hurt him, isn't technically near as sound and won't hold up to Canelos shots imo. At present I'm not sure whether this is even any kind of test for the kid, he should be able to punch holes through Williams.
It's a good fight, I like it. Canelo is not.ready for Floyd and this is a good next step for him. As for the PPV, I don't know why they are doing this. That fight will be lucky to draw 150k ppv buys. Unless this card is completely loaded it will not do great numbers.
Williams is finished and that's why Alvarez is fighting him, I mean come on why isn't Alvarez fighting cotto??
If Paul Williams would fight taking full advantage of his mutant physical characteristics he would be this era’s version of Tommy Hearns but he doesn’t. He stands in the pocket and fights like he’s 5 foot 2 with a 67 inch reach. That’s probably also the reason that as a southpaw he has no clue how to deal with other southpaws.
Speaking of southpaws, Alvarez has little or no experience which adds intrigue and PW does quite well against orthodox fighters. I think we will finally see Canelo’s chin checked and at numerous times during the fight. All Williams has to do is use range and even ¾ of that wing span for the half the fight and he could probably win it.
I think Williams will fight as he always does but manage the ud or late stoppage nonetheless. Maybe even a white towel will be thrown in.
I am not convinced that the punch from Martinez has ruined Williams to the point most people do. I could also be gravely mistaken.
If williams could fight a boring, boring safety first fight. Avoiding every risky exchange and making the most of his advantages he could win. More than likely he will not.
I hope that Williams wins this and upsets the applecart. If he is to win then he has to knock out or stop Alvarez because they will not allow the golden goose to lose a decision. Making it PPV is a kick in the balls for boxing fans.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
I agree with both counts. I don't think I've ever rooted for Williams before, but I will do so against the vaunted red headed fuck.
Is this a PPV ? If so then that is the bullshit of all bullshit.
Williams gets hit a lot these days, but he looked like he had something left last time out schooling Ishida.
"You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"
